Claws on my Heart Ch 5

The weather had continued to get warmer as spring progressed. I started buying and re-selling books for Killian as his understanding of vocabulary improved. Books were not cheap but it filled my heart with joy seeing his face light up whenever I brought him something new. We continued to train, this time moving onto using real weapons instead of wood. I didn't have access to mithril, so I had to opt for a typical spear instead. A wooden shaft affixed with an iron point. My friend had been rather absent recently which worried me, he had been so active before. Killian had let me hold his spear a few times, it shocked me how light it was. If I didn't know better I'd say it was made out of wood, but everything it struck never left a scratch. Thankfully I had managed to convince Leo that dinner my friend had me cook was a fluke. Through all this I felt constant shame for lying and stealing against my will. My life was having it's ups and downs because of my friend but so far he has only been helpful.

It was a clear and sunny day without a cloud in sight as a cool breeze blew through the trees. I was cuddling with Killian after we sucked each other off. “I wanted to talk about where we're going, do you have any suggestions?"

He held me close to his chest. “I was thinking about heading east, the ocean there is beautiful and you've never seen it before. Hate how the sand gets all stuck in my fur though. Heading west is a bad idea, those cats are nothing but trouble. North, I'm not so sure about. I want to show you my homeland but being with me, it would be nothing but trouble."

“Because we would be a human and a wolf together, or because of your fur and that spear?"

“The latter, I think some of the more unruly dogs up there might be jealous of what we have. Such a small cute butt is irresistible." He gives my ass a smack making me gasp.

I gently bite his nipple as payback. “For what it's worth, I don't think you're cursed. Your black fur is beautiful and soft it's just superstition and prejudice. I had a few thoughts about your spear though, why don't you just hide it like you did at the festival?"

“Flattery will get you everything. Sadly I lied, I didn't have it on me I just didn't want to admit it at the time. What I really wanted was to spend time with you, and the risk was worth it."

He never ceases to warm my heart, even when he's a bit of an ass. “I thought that was the case, maybe one day we can have that dance."

He ruffles my hair “Yeah I'll admit it I wanted nothing more than to take your hand in mine and twirl you around to the beat of a song along with everyone else."

“You know what, to hell with it all let's go north. The rest of the world can wait, I don't want to keep hiding our relationship out in the middle of nowhere. We'll definitely run into some trouble, but we can handle it together. I want to dance with you, dine with you, be with you without any worries about a bunch of ignorant fools for once. Even if it's cold I'm sure it's beautiful there. There are some humans that go up there to trade, so if need be I can do all the shopping for once."

I see him ponder this prospect, acceptance of our sexuality is something he wanted desperately too. Leo had afforded us comfort and acceptance, but he was one man out of a city of thousands. In the north we ran the nearly guaranteed risk of confronting Killian's past but it's where our future also seemed the brightest.

I massage his ears just the right way, something else I learned from my friend. “Please love, I know you have lots of painful memories there. You've told me about the good ones as well not every wolf despises you for the color of your fur. Remember that family with the really good chicken at the festival? I saw you look at them and their son, did you wish your parents were like that?"

He grumbles “Maybe, but why yearn for what is impossible to have, I am a grown man now. No longer do I have a need for parents or children for I have you."

“There's nothing wrong with wanting a better life for yourself, even if it would require changing the past."

He gets a devious smile, I know that look. “I have one condition."

“Name it love."

“If I take you to the north, we have to confront my past. So you need to secure our future. Daniel, will you become my mate?"

We've never talked about marriage, it was forbidden for two human men to marry so I never thought about it before. There was no official who would be willing to wed us. “If you're asking what I think you're asking. Then you already know my answer is yes. But I have to ask, what does becoming your mate mean, is it like getting married for humans?"

“Hmm, not quite. You humans are obsessed with monogamy but constantly break the rule. Becoming my mate means that your heart is mine forever, and mine yours. It is a declaration of our love everlasting and bond that can never be broken. Sex isn't seen as such a dirty thing in the northern territories we could sleep with other people. But I don't want to, you know me too well no other man could ever please me like you do."

“Damn right no other man could compare to me in bed. Another stupid human thing to ask about, do you have a last name? Mine is Hayes and humans usually take the man's last name but we're both men so I don't know where that leaves us."

“Wolves don't carry a last name, remember each of us has a unique scent so we can tell one another apart even if we share the same name. I wouldn't mind honoring this one human tradition, for you I will become Killian Hayes."

I truly do not deserve such a fine man. “Thank you, mister Hayes, for affording me at least one of my stupid traditions. Do we need to get rings or anything like that?"

“I'm not mister Hayes yet, we still have to go through with it but no. Another silly human tradition is wearing a metal band on your finger to display your union to others. If we wore metal rings close to the skin in the north our fingers would freeze and break off. It's more spiritual, a bond between us meant only for us we need no physical object to display it."

He was about to make me cry. “Damn it all yes you big furry bastard I'll become your mate. Do we at least get a party and a ceremony?"

He rubs my chest lovingly. “Of course we do, and I'll make that night the best night of your life."

“I think you've used that same line a few times already."

“I mean it every single time, I just have to try harder."

I do my best to hold back my tears, I never thought this would happen in my lifetime. Finding someone to share my life with, get married sort of, travel the world. I wasn't a fool, my friend was still planning something and he had yet to turn me into a wolf. I was being patient, all in due time I thought. Things weren't going to be that simple or easy but I was enjoying living in the moment. Just this once, I'll allow myself to be happy without a care in the world. I get on top of Killian, bringing my lips to his and giving him a couple passionate kisses. “I love you."

He was easily able to roll us over, so he was on top now. “I love you too."

We enjoy each other's bodies for a while. Just kissing, touching, groping, humping to our heart's content. We got a bit worked up but thankfully we had just blown off some steam as we calm ourselves.

I got this awful feeling in my stomach, I'd be leaving Leo on his own again. This day was coming eventually but now it was real. He deserved a proper goodbye for everything he has done for me and Killian. For the first time in a long time I can feel my friend pulling the strings. My body knew what to do, I was going to change the world with these two hands. I was going to create something that would make Leo one of the riches men in all of Kor. That would be my gift to him, thank you friend.

We get up off our bed of leaves and start the day proper. “Before we go, there is something I need to do first. Leo deserves more in his life for all he's done for us. I will need at least three weeks to make that happen. My last act in this place will be to forge something truly special and teach Leo how to make it. He will be the only man in Kor other than me who will know how."

He nods approvingly “Yes, that sounds right that man deserves such a thing, but I am curious. What could you possibly make that will do this?"

I have no name for it, but my friend does as he moves my lips for me. “Steel."

First things first I decide to break the news of my engagement to the only person I could. I find Leo hard at work as usual pounding iron in his forge. He can tell I have something to say with the big stupid smile on my face. “Leo, I know this might come as a surprise. How do I say this, Killian asked me to marry him, in his own way. I said yes."

He breaks out in silent joy, not wanting for an angry mob to descend upon us. “That's great news lad I'm happy for you. But do tell how you plan to pull that one off."

“It's complicated, we can't be wed here, things are different in his homeland though. They have a mating ceremony that can bond two men together in something like marriage. They don't have last names, but he agreed to take mine on anyway. We're going to be mister and mister Hayes soon enough."

He pulls me into a hug, he's dirty and smelly but I don't care as I hug him back. “I never thought I'd see the day, but it sounds like the wedding will be a bit too far for this old fool." This saddens me greatly, with what I was about to do he would be stuck here forever maybe. It will greatly improve his wealth though, he would survive.

I spend the next few days preparing for this huge endeavor. I get the feeling that creating steel is going to be world shattering. I gather raw iron ingots, charcoal, stone pots, and make a powdery mixture to seal them. I tell Leo to not take any new orders as I would be needing the forge working full time for three weeks.

Leo is understandably upset at this request. “Three fucking weeks are you out of your mind, do you have any idea how much coin that would cost me?"

I am unphased by this, he has no idea what is about to happen. I look at him calmly and explain. “I've been working on something Leo, and now is the time to share it with you. You've been good to me all my life, took me in as an orphan boy. Supported my sexuality, gave your blessing to be with the man I love. You are a father to me. Today I repay your kindness in full for I will forge the next greatest metal in Kor, and you will be the only other man to know the process. Watch closely, I'm going to show you how to make steel."

He looks at me with bewilderment, my words have reached his heart. “What is steel?"

I just smile as I start the process he will understand, placing the iron ingots and charcoal into the pots before sealing them shut and billowing the forge hotter than it has ever been. “It is reinforced iron, the resulting metal will be stronger, more beautiful, sharper. Anyone wielding a steel weapon will shatter the lesser iron implements we have been forging. Since you will be the only one making it as I travel it will be worth more than gold."

I continue the long and slow process of melting the iron and allowing it to absorb the charcoal. Allowing the metal to cool over at least 14 days. Every day I produce a new batch and what little land we have is occupied by blazingly hot stone pots. After 14 days I opened the first pot and showed Leo what I had created. The metal shone like dull silver, he was transfixed. It was not done yet, I took that crude steel and heated it back up folding it over itself 3 times to evenly distribute the charcoal throughout the mixture. By the end of it all I had a lustrous shining chunk of steel. The next step was a simple one, we had both done it countless times. I shaped that steel into a sword, sharpening and polishing the blade until its deadly edge had a blinding reflection. I had left Leo with a good supply of the stuff still cooling in stone pots as well as the raw materials. Handing him the finished blade he stares at it in awe. “How did you learn to do this?" he takes a few practice swings, bringing it down upon some iron scrap as it breaks through the lesser metal easily.

“It's just like you said Leo, I have raw talent it's in my blood. Consider presenting a few of these to the King, your name should be known far and wide by the time winter comes. I hope this gift makes you the wealthiest man in Kor, you deserve to live in luxury. For your heart is made of gold." I give my adoptive father a hug, he deserves this.

The time drew near, Killian was preparing for our departure. The flow of mercenary work was running quite low, he must have killed too many people. News of what I had created hadn't broken out yet but people were suspicious of what I was doing in that forge. I intended to be long gone before the frenzy descended upon that small building, Leo was going to make a killing. I wouldn't be surprised if the King offered Leo a substantial mountain of gold to work for the crown exclusively.

We had gathered all of our necessary and unnecessary supplies. We both carried spears and I now wore a pack stuffed to the brim much like Killian's containing all my personal belongings. Everything from clothes to food and trinkets. This was my life now, with the man I loved. We go to say our goodbyes to Leo on one brisk spring morning. I realize this is the first time Killian will be seeing the steel I have been so busy forging. As we walk inside I pull one out of a storage crate where several are now hiding and showing it to him. I can tell he is impressed, the way it shined was unique, not as much as mithril though.

“So this is steel then? Looks nice, you were working your ass off in here for a long time. Got so damn hot I couldn't bear to come inside. I'm guessing its more than just a shiny sword."

“Yeah, it's not as special as your mithril though. Still people can forge this reliably, I know I can trust you with this secret. Steel is just iron and charcoal mixed together. The process is a bit more complex but the resulting metal is high quality."

I hand him the sword as he twirls it around, it's definitely still as heavy as iron though. I watch him take a swing at piece of wood, it slices through easily.

“How do you think this compares to mithril?"

“Definitely not as good as mithril you'd still be able to break it with your spear. The best part is the ingredients are exceedingly common unlike that magical metal. The world might change when everyone starts making it. I imagine we would be a cute old couple by the time that happens though."

He scoffs at the notion “Us, old? Never, I plan on staying this young."

It hits me, Killian had turned 32 now that spring arrived. “That reminds me, you're 32 now right? Do wolves celebrate becoming a year older like humans do?"

He shakes his head. “I did age when spring arrived but no celebration, I will have to introduce you to our culture more. I get the feeling that you would fit right in. Even packed some warm clothes for you it will be getting quite cold for a human."

I can't help but get a surging feeling of excitement, I'd fit right in soon enough, I'm just sorry that I can't tell you about it. My friend is quite shy.

Leo walks out of the back still rubbing the sleep from his eyes as we make loud noises. “So this is it then, today's the day?"

Killian walks up to him. “Today is the day, you don't need to worry about us. Daniel is not just a smith anymore. We are warriors, I have trained him well. My homeland in the north can be a harsh place, but it has a certain beauty as well. Our bond will only grow stronger so make no mistake, you will see us again."

After shaking Leo's hand Killian walks outside giving us a moment alone, he had said his piece.

He looks at me expectantly, Leo never really cried but I could tell he was holding back the tears. So I have mercy and break the silence.

“It's like Killian said, I know how to defend myself now. There isn't any doubt that we will run into trouble eventually. As long as we're together everything will work itself out. I'm going to go see the world with him, and we're getting married… sort of. I'm sorry you can't be there I just hope my gift of steel can make up for it."

He picks up one of the swords and examines it, what to do with this gift was up to him now. This material will be coveted across the land and surely make him a rich man.

“I won't lie, a bit disappointed that I'll miss your ceremony, but that man will take good care of you I won't worry. Just be sure to stop by and visit during your travels." He brings me into a bear hug, almost crushing my ribcage. “Best of luck son. Now get out of here, daylight is burning, and I have a fortune to make."

There was nothing left to be said, I walk outside and let Killian lead the way. We walk in relative silence as we approach the city gates.

“Please tell me we're not walking the whole way there."

“No of course not, I've secured us passage on a caravan that will drop us near the border. The roads are still a bit rough that far north so few people make the journey. We will have to walk the rest of the way. On the bright side, we will get to see the beautiful countryside as the snow melts."

I have to admit that sounds wonderful, Killian hides it well so most people wouldn't notice. There was a slight curve in his lips near the end, he was happy. We would still have to hide our relationship until we crossed the border but it was something we had gotten good at sadly. We were traveling under the pretense that he was my escort to the north. That I was a foolish man trying to negotiate a trade deal the wolves for their rare earth metals. Many had tried and failed, but I was going to be the lucky one. A believable story that hid us well. I can see our ride, there was a line of carts and carriages hooked up to horses. A humble way to travel but far cheaper than owning a horse yourself. We are greeted by a man with a list, he checks us off as we load up into the back of a covered carriage. Our weapons are welcome, on the open road you can never have too much protection. Several other human travelers pile into the carriage as time goes on, they look a bit shocked seeing Killian there. Some tried to back out and move elsewhere, apparently elsewhere was full as they crawled back. I do not reassure them, fear is a good motivator to keep their noses out of our business. Killian's piercing gaze made them cower as far away from us as possible. We are not here to make friends, these people could turn on us if the truth comes out.

The caravan starts up, the sound of clacking hooves and wheels turning fill the air as we do not speak. Some of the other passengers huddle together and talk in hushed voices, I presume about Killian. Most of the trip is uneventful, just sitting in the back waiting patiently to arrive at our destination. Everyone leaves us alone and we don't cause any trouble just keeping our heads down. Better to not give them a reason to look our way. One night we manage to slip away to relax and chat.

“Oh man, this trip is taking forever. Just how big is the world anyways I can't believe it's been weeks and we're still not there."

Now that we're truly alone I feel Killian creep up behind me and assault my body with his hands. He missed my touch and I missed his as those furry paws work their way under my clothes to grope all his favorite places.

“The world is large and travel takes time, but you have no idea how hard it's been to keep my paws to myself when you're just in reach. Sometimes I just want to ravage you and make you scream my name in the night. I wouldn't care who hears as long as I got to claim you again."

He smells extra strong tonight, my man was really pent up. We hadn't had sex this entire trip and I was starting to get impatient as well.

“Maybe if we're quick and quiet we can have a little fun. I would love nothing more than for you to ravage me like a savage beast but we can't be gone long they'll start to wonder."

He growls. “Rrrrr, I know too bad I'm not quick I like to savor my meals." His paw grabs my ass hard and massages my cheeks, I have to really focus on stifling my moans. I can feel him start to pull down my pants, as he drops his. I shudder at the thought of him just taking me right here and now. We didn't bring the lube but we've done it like this before. Just as soon as he started he stops, pulling up both of our pants and whispering to me.

“Someone's coming, lets head back separately." He moves silently as I'm left there wondering what to do.

I might as well have a piss while I was out here, taking my cock out and spraying the ground in front of me as I let out a little sigh. There are footsteps approaching behind me, I pull up my pants and start to walk back. One of the men from the caravan had a similar idea as he hurried past me to relieve himself.

It doesn't take long to get back to the camp we've set up for the night. We sleep separately, Killian makes everyone uncomfortable, so he usually finds a nice spot to look at the stars. It breaks my heart seeing him treated this way, was this his life until he met me? I wanted nothing more in that moment than to just make the world a more welcoming place for him. Sleep comes easily enough as I lay next to the smoldering remains of a fire. Morning couldn't come soon enough.

The next leg of the journey became a bit more difficult as less traveled roads slowed our progress. The scenery had also changed as I noticed different kinds of trees, plants, and animals. Killian was knowledgeable enough to tell me about most of them especially the things you could eat out here. I curiously explored this new kind of habitat, the trees had needles instead of leaves as numerous small furry critters scurried about. Massive black birds flew between the branches as they scavenged the forest floor. Everything was starting to get colder as well, I opted to wear the fur jacket Killian got for me more often now. I tease him every now and then making sure nobody else could hear.

“I wish it was your fur keeping me warm."

He was stoic as ever, but I knew deep down I was going to regret this later. I hoped he would make me regret it anyway, which was basically guaranteed. We were approaching our destination or so I was told, soon the caravan would head east to a Duke's keep to deliver the supplies we've been hauling. It was a relief that we didn't run into any trouble on the road couldn't say I was looking forward to killing a bandit after our gold. After three more days of travel we had arrived at our drop off point, the road took a sharp turn as we reached a rather wildly raging river. The melted snow adding water to it's ferocity. I could see relief in the other passenger's eyes as we gathered our belongings and disembarked. Killian never laid a finger on a single hair but they still couldn't see past his appearance no matter his actions. We watched them go on their way as we headed toward the river, we needed to cross it.

My lover had other plans as he dragged me off into the trees instead. He had that mischievous grin whenever he wanted to try something new. “You've been a bad pup lately. Teasing me like that deserves some punishments don't you agree?" He has some leather straps and pulls them taut, I don't really know what he has in mind but I'll play along.

“Oh please no sir, it wasn't my intention to cause you any … distress." I brush my hand against his crotch, I can feel that he's hard and tenting them already.

We drop our belongings next to us as I let Killian have his fun, submitting to him as he strips me forcefully while putting up a little resistance. He wastes no time getting out of his armor as I can see his big cock is already most of the way out of the sheath. Mine stands at attention as well, looking forward to this moment for a long time. He grabs those leather straps as he backs me up against a tree, pinning my wrists above my head while he ties them together and loops the straps around the trunk. I wasn't getting out of this without some help later.

I whimper, “What are you going to do to me?"

He grabs my hair and yanks my head to the side so he can lick my neck. “I'm going to make you suffer." I get spun around so I'm pinned against the rough bark with my ass exposed. I feel his paws trace around my cheeks before giving my ass a firm smack. It makes me squeal in delight, it hurt a bit for sure but I savored the light pain. He keeps going slowly, spanking my exposed ass making me pull on the leather, it creaks in protest.

It feels good, I like being at his mercy like this as my legs start to shake. I can't help but whimper between the blows. “H-harder."

He doesn't waste any time as I can feel significantly more force behind the next one sending a shockwave through my backside making my cheek sting. It was warm before but now it burns, I'm sure my ass is red already. He keeps them coming, no doubt enjoying making me suffer like this. My cock is bouncing between my legs as it drips long strands of pre onto the ground with every smack. The pain starts to become real.

“Killian, spicy." I beg under my breath and he stops. Embracing me from behind as a little tear is in the corner of my eye.

“That's so fucking hot, I made you say it finally. I love breaking strong men and you're the strongest. We're not done yet, I just won't hit you there anymore." He traces a paw across my backside gently, it burned. He wedges his rock hard dick between my cheeks, smearing his pre against my hole.

I've been waiting to have sex with my wolf for what feels like months and the time was finally here. He presses forward slowly as that tapered tip spears my hole sliding inside easily. I'm pretty tight after all this time and he makes me gasp at the penetration. “Mmm yeah that's it pup let me inside you. You're so tight after not being used for so long I'll make sure to fix that." His scent is all around me, it's all I can smell. I've never known him to be this horny before.

He grabs my hips and holds me steady, I couldn't move an inch he had me right where he wanted me. Starting to work his shaft in my ass slowly, fucking me with only a few inches at a time until I loosened up for him. My dick was bouncing between my legs as he plowed me from behind, it felt amazing to have him inside me again. The way his shaft stretches my hole and his pre slowly lubes my insides was a welcome feeling. He occasionally manages to press right against my special spot making me press back into him needily. “Is my pup hungry for more wolf cock?" with one strong shove he hilts himself in my ass while my hole kisses his knot.

Just holding me there against him I can feel his paws tremble as he breathes out hard. I know he wants nothing more than to cram his knot in my ass but he's a good boy and he just starts fucking me instead. It makes me moan, there's no way anyone would hear us out in the middle of nowhere so I let it all out. “Ah! Ah! Ah! Fuck yes, fuck me. Harder"

He's more than happy to fuck me harder, I start to tense up as I'm getting close. His slick shaft sending waves of pleasure throughout my cock. After such a long time this was going to be a great orgasm. Without any warning he just pulls out of me “No no no no no, put it back in don't you fucking dare do this to me." I hump the air in a vain attempt to cum as my dick throbs just on the edge.

He hugs me from behind and slides his cock between my legs, poking between my balls as he holds us there. “I told you, I'm going to make you suffer."

I struggle and continue to hump the air in vain as he enjoys watching me beg.

“If it makes you feel any better, it was reaaaaaaly difficult to take it out of this sweet tight ass."

That does not make me feel any better. “I'm going to get you for this." My boner starts to die down, going limp between my legs while his rock hard cock is still sliding between my thighs.

“I look forward to it."

He lets me go and starts rummaging around inside one of our packs. “NO peeking, or I'm not going to let you cum." I do not peek.

The next sensation comes as a shock making me jump and tremble, with a loud crack Killian had brought down a piece of leather across my back whipping me. It didn't feel as nice when he was spanking me, but the sensation wasn't all bad. “Ngh, fuck that hurts, not too hard okay?"

In response he whips me harder, it sounded worse than it felt. I can handle the pain, hearing him panting behind me letting me know how much he loved making me whimper. I take a few more cracks of whatever he was whipping me with before I beg for mercy. “Killian! Spicy!" I couldn't take it anymore, and that just turned him on more.

I hear him mess with some more things behind me and can smell the nice fragrance of our lube. He was definitely getting it all over that knot. I can barely wait, I push my hips out for him as I arch my back. “Yeah that's right pup, you want it bad don't you. How does it feel, getting teased and denied your pleasure?" He slides his shaft between my cheeks just grinding it there letting me feel every inch of him. “You want this wolf cock? You want my knot? Beg dog."

This gets me hard again, I needed it. “Please sir, fuck me and make me cum. I need your knot inside me, you give me the best sex when you push it in. I'm your bitch, please breed me like one."

He keeps rubbing his shaft against my hole, his hands coming around to grope my chest. The air is cool and my nipples are hard as he starts to play with them. Slowly drawing circles around the edges as he presses in and flicks my hard nubs. “Try harder."

I'm panting like a bitch in heat while he teases me like this. My dick aches like it never has before, I've leaked so much pre there's a tiny puddle beneath me. “Please please please, I'm just a hole for you. Your knot belongs inside me we both need it so badly. Have mercy I beg of you."

He seems satisfied with my answer as he slowly works his shaft back inside me. Still slick it easily goes all the way up to the knot when he starts pressing it in firmly. He doesn't pull out just holds me there as my ass stretches for him. One of his paws grabs my hair, pulling my head back until I'm looking right up at his muzzle. I feel so weak and helpless spread out for a wolf, he brings his lips to mine and kisses me. My lips part and he shoves his entire long tongue into my mouth completely filling it. I gag on it while he starts to fuck me again. It's uncomfortable in this position but his lubed knot is pressing in just a little more with each strong thrust of his hips. I breathe through my nose as I feel him press forward hard, growling into my mouth as his knot slips inside me. I can feel it press up against my special spot as my cock erupts, shooting copious amounts of cum against the tree painting it white. His own orgasm not far behind as his grip on me tightens and he fills me with his cum. I will never get tired of feeling this big throbbing cock fill me completely. He withdraws his tongue as a long strand of spit connects our mouths. We're both panting hard as I'm tied to a tree with a wolf cock up my ass.

“Holy fuck, I needed that." I start to become aware of the soreness in my joints from being restrained like this. “Any chance you could untie me now?"

Killian ignores me, he has his eyes closed as he idly humps away at my ass still enjoying his orgasm. I couldn't wait until mine were like that, there was no choice but to let him ride it out. It took him several minutes to come back to his senses and let me go, releasing my restraints and holding me close. We manage to sit down on a pile of needles, not the most comfortable. “Maybe next time you'll think twice about teasing me when I can't fuck you."

That was actually the best orgasm I've had I had no idea I could produce so much cum. “I think I might need a few more punishments for the lesson to stick."

He licks my face “I can make that happen."

We just enjoy the scenery for a while as we wait for his knot to go down. “So what's the plan for crossing the river? Water looks pretty rough around here."

“There's a crossing a ways downstream, it gets wider and shallow so we're not going to be washed away."

“That's a relief. So have you tied men up before, or was that my special punishment?"

I can hear a deep satisfied rumble in his chest as I lean back into him. “That was just for you. I had nothing but time to think about how to punish you properly. I like to imagine it was time well spent." He points to the tree where I was tied up, my dried cum leaving quite a large stain. A furry paw cups my balls and massages them. “You sure had a lot saved up in these, and I got to fuck it out of you." I could feel myself start to get hard again thinking about it, I was deeply in love with this man.

The sun travels across the sky making it late afternoon as the light starts to fade. With one strong tug Killian's knot slips out of me with a wet pop, a long stream of his cum leaks out of me making a small puddle on the ground. His paws hold me there as he spreads my red burning cheeks to get a good look. “Hold still pup, let me admire my work back here. Push more of it out." It makes me feel dirty doing it, but I try pushing more of his cum out as my gaped hole weakly puckers. Turns out there was an ungodly amount as it came out in thick globs. “Fuck yeah, everyone will know you're mine when we reach the first settlement. When they see you, they'll just smell me."

I let out a little sigh as he lets me go, I try my best to keep the rest of his cum in my ass but it just leaks out of my gaped hole. Hearing him say that makes me excited, for the first time in my life we could just be a normal couple. Well, normal enough. I wipe away the excess cum and get dressed again, we should cross the river and set up camp for the night. We return to the river and get back on track after having some much-needed sex. We hike along the bank, refilling our waterskins and quenching our thirst after that workout. It takes us about an hour going at my pace, I'm sure Killian makes trips like these far quicker than me. The river crossing wasn't too terrible the water only came up to my thigh as we waded across managing to keep our packs dry. It was definitely time to set up camp and replace these damp clothes.

I clear a flat spot for us under a natural rock formation which offered some protection. It was not much but our backs would be covered. Killian heads out into the trees to find us some dinner while I get the camp ready. Starting a fire to dry our clothes, laying his one large bedroll out to share and preparing our dried rations just in case. With nothing better to do I decide to take out the book I had managed to cram into my pack last minute as a surprise. Killian had become quite the avid reader in his spare time, I was always teaching him new words and my friend helped with the ones even I didn't know.

This was a much bigger book that had no pictures, the seller told me it was about a queen who tended to a secret magical garden. I open it up to the first page and it was dense. The words were small and spaced close together not wasting much paper, this would be a long read. I suddenly hear Killian's voice right in front of me. “Where did you get that?"

I'm startled as I jump a bit and close the book. “Holy fuck man, stop sneaking up on me like that. Can't hear you at all it's surprising every time."

He just smiles, obviously proud of himself. I notice that he has two rabbits in his paw. “Get better ears." He points to his pointed fluffy ones.

Soon I think to myself, sooner than you know love. “Well this was supposed to be a surprise, but I picked this up before we left. It's a much longer story than anything we've read so far. Since we are going to be out here a while I thought you would appreciate it." I hand him the book as I take the rabbits to begin preparing them. The book's cover was dyed a dark blue and the title read 'Lady Rosalia'. He opens up to a random page and tries to read a couple of lines. “There are lots of big words in this."

“That's why I got that one, you were doing really well with simpler stories and picture books. It's time for a challenge." He huffs, watching me prepare dinner as he sits down by the fire I started. “Why don't I start now, I'll read out loud while you make us dinner."

We do just that, Killian reads me the book while I pile our plates with rabbit meat. The sun has started to set as darkness rolls in, we decide that's enough for one day as we finish dinner and put the book away. Stripping naked for the second time today we cuddle together in his large bedroll, his fur keeps me nice and warm all night long. “Sadly this is the last night we get to sleep together pup. We're going to have to take turns keeping watch. Until we get onto the lands patrolled by my people this is a lawless area."

“I'll make sure to savor every second then." I press my still sore and burning ass into his crotch making him let out a puff of hot air. Feeling his big arms hold my back close to his chest relaxes me as we drift off to sleep.

The night was cold, I wake up and my nose is frigid. The rest of my body is perfectly toasty and warm cuddled up with my wolf. He really was the perfect blanket in the winter. Morning sunlight beams down directly on my eyes which causes me to sit up, waking my lover as well. “Morning pup, ready to start the day? We still have a long road ahead of us but I know the way."

I yawn “Yeah, you keep me warm on these cold nights it's perfect. I'm sad this was the last time for a while." We get up pack up our camp and eat a small amount of dried rations for breakfast as we begin the long journey up north.

Killian takes me on several detours just to see the wilderness. Since it feels to be around late spring this time of year he tells me about an open field in the forest filled with flowers he had found years ago. I see no reason why it wouldn't be there, and upon arrival we were met with a truly beautiful sight. The field is indeed still there, and flowers of all different colors are sprouting in every direction. A thought crosses my mind, I want to keep this image forever.

I get Killian to take off his cloak and go pose for me in the field while I attempt to sketch the image down on paper. We are running dangerously low on ink, it was the one thing I forgot to buy more of. With fragile quill in hand I start to get nervous, he looks gorgeous standing there as the wind blows through his fur and the flowers while he looks at me lovingly. I think to myself “friend, I know you're still there. Can you help me draw? I never want to forget this moment." My hands begin moving on their own, each line captures the essence of the scenery before me. Killian begins getting impatient, he has been standing there for at least an hour. Just another twenty minutes and I'm finished. My friend was the master of all trades it seems, the picture I had drawn seemed perfect in every way. Showing it to my love he was genuinely surprised.

“I had no idea you were an artist. This is perfection have you been practicing?"

“I've always been an artist, forging is an art as well, I guess it just translated onto paper."

He doesn't really buy it, but that doesn't matter to either of us right now. We embrace, kiss, and move on after waiting for the ink to dry. Placing the drawing in my pack for safekeeping, unfolded of course. The rest of the sights are lovely as well, waterfalls, a lake, and more wild rivers. Each night we take turns keeping watch, but nothing has happened yet. It wears on my nerves always being on edge like this. I couldn't imagine Killian doing this on his own, it seemed so very lonely.

After about another week and a half of travel we were closing in on the first settlement in the northern territories, a town called Frostfang. We had been lucky so far, but it was bound to run out at some point. Killian sniffed the air frantically before pulling me close as we whispered to each other. “I smell people, at least four humans and one wolf all men. We are downwind of them right now. I like to avoid killing if possible, let's cover our tracks and hide. If they are looking for us I will lead them into an ambush, you need not help me."

I felt something growing in my chest, a feeling. Excitement, my friend encouraged me to take this fight. I could taste it, soon I would no longer be human, time to start acting like a wolf. My first kill, I wanted to have it. Doing my best to contain these emotions I reply “That's five against one, I know you're a skilled fighter but still. This is what you've been preparing me for, I'm ready."

He could see it in my eyes, the hunger and it worried him. “Daniel please don't fight me on this, you've never tasted real combat. When there aren't so many enemies, I will be willing. Today is not that day, go hide where I tell you." I find myself cowering behind a boulder next to a stream. My pack is laid on the ground next to me as I grip my iron spear tightly.

If there was violence it was out of hearing range, the water would just drown out the noise. I can hear someone coming, their breathing ragged as they run through the trees. A survivor from my vicious wolf most likely, maybe I should put him out of his misery. My friend nurtures this notion, he is quite happy with me.

I walk out into the open and sure enough, a wounded man is clutching a large gash on his arm as it bleeds profusely. He would not last much longer at that rate of blood loss. He spots me and my weapon, practically begging for help. I listen to his rather amusing story about a rabid black wolf that slaughtered his crew. I ask him why he's still alive, apparently the coward ran when he got that little cut. I offer him bandages to stop the bleeding back at my camp and point in the direction behind him, he thanks me profusely as he turns to look. With no warning I raise my spear and stab him in the back of the neck severing his spine as he falls to the ground dying instantly. Crimson sprays as I withdraw the spearhead, I smile. This was fun, wouldn't you agree friend? I get the feeling he does. It wasn't the fight I was craving, but his death was sweet all the same. Washing the blood from my weapon in the stream. I go back to waiting for Killian. He showed his handsome muzzle about twenty minutes later, he was covered in gore.

Blood dripped from his maw in long red streaks like he had torn out a throat with it, his usually beautiful mithril spear was stained red. His sleek black cloak was splattered with blood, but worst of all I saw that he had a cut on his left arm. He spots the dead man lying in a pool of his own blood, looking at me. I ponder telling him what happened, I decide to be truthful if he asks.

“Daniel – I."

I cut him off. “Killian! You're hurt, here lets wash you off then I can bandage that for you."

He looks at me funny, I wasn't phased by his rather grotesque appearance and had just taken my first life. That look he was giving me, he knew something was off. You can't hide forever friend. I take off his black cloak and start to rinse it off in the stream. “So what happened back there?"

He snaps out of the daze he was in. “What happened back there is something I've done countless times. The better question is what happened here?" he points to the dead man.

“Isn't it obvious? One was trying to get away, so I killed him, not like he was lasting much longer with that gushing wound."

He squints at me. “My point exactly, you didn't have to do this."

I can feel a smile coming on, my lip quivers as I try with all my might to suppress it. “I know, I wanted to do it. Just like how you wanted to tear out someone's throat with your bare fangs. You didn't have to, but you wanted to."

He wipes some of the blood from his muzzle as he stands there. He does not acknowledge my comment. “Daniel, this isn't you. There's something different about you there has been for a long time. You learn incredibly quickly, you know so much about so many different things. You possess the skills of a grandmaster when you try something new for the first time. Will you be honest and tell me, please?"

This is it friend, will you let me tell him? He knows something is wrong. Silence. I try to open my mouth to speak, but I find that I cannot. I hate this feeling, lying to Killian eats away at me inside. “I'm sorry, but I can't." I lay his cloak out to dry while I take his wet hand and lead him to the stream. We sit there in silence while I remove his armor and clothes, beginning to wash them. I feel his eyes piercing through me looking for an answer. I take a cloth and comb from my pack and start to wash his fur, letting the cool water take away the red stains. He dips his spear in the water and the blood washes away quickly, leaving it clean. “This is probably a lot easier when you have someone to help you isn't it?"

He sits there and lets me clean him. “You're going to tell me, I will not be letting this go. That man was ran through at the nape of his neck. He was facing away when you killed him. I'm glad that I don't have to worry about you taking a life to defend yourself, but I don't want you to end up like me."

My mind begins to wander, that is exactly what I want. I imagine landscapes where we fight as two lovers side by side, painting the world red. Those who would shame us, shun us, execute us for loving one another. I wanted to end them, so that I could give the man I loved a kinder world where we no longer had to hide. I watch Killian take a few mouthfuls of water to rinse out his maw, I see him spit out a few chunky bits as well. His fur was cleaning up nicely, I couldn't smell anymore blood on him at least. Moving onto his wound it was a small cut on his left forearm, nothing serious but he would need to dry off before wrapping it.

“Believe me when I say that I want to tell you, it's just that … I can't. Not yet anyway. We need to get you dry before night falls, I'll start a fire."

He looks at the ground dejectedly, maybe it was a mistake. Did he fall in love with the man I used to be before I met you friend? Have I really changed that much? No, everything would turn out okay my friend has only helped me so far. He was even kind enough to grant my request, that beautiful drawing still safely tucked away in my pack. I gather wood and clear a small space starting the fire letting Killian dry off.

“Daniel, you're scaring me. What's wrong, it's plain to see something is going on." This wasn't going how I wanted it to. I thought he would rejoice and revel in my first kill with me, but now my back is up against the wall and I have nowhere to run.

I sit there across the fire from him, looking into his sad eyes. “I still think about it you know, that night. Where I felt what you did, it was intoxicating. There are moments I can imagine it without the drug, being like you. So that's what I've been trying to do, I want to be more like you."

He turns his back to me as he starts to dry off that side of him, splaying out his arms wide. I move to face him again. “I know that doesn't explain everything, but that's the truth. From the moment I met you I knew. I knew that you were a killer, but that didn't matter to me. I fell for that handsome face the second I saw it. I decided right then and there that if I needed to become part of your world to be with you that I would."

He just asks me a simple question. “Did you enjoy killing him?"

I nod “Yes, did you enjoy using your teeth instead of your spear?"

He nods as well. “Yes, I did."

I don't waste any time and bring him into a passionate kiss, holding those deadly jaws in place while I assault them with my lips. “I love you, so much Killian."

He breaks the kiss looking rather serious. “Daniel, listen for a second. You know my life hasn't been easy, for so long I was just surviving day to day. When I met you, I never thought it would turn into love. Now, hearing you say all this I've never been more sure of anything in my life. I want to spend the rest of my days with you until the day I die. I love you."

We spend the rest of our evening drying off my wet wolf and tending to his minor wound. As night falls we decide to move camp away from the corpse I had created. Killian goes to retrieve his pack as he gets dressed, clothes now free of blood.

“I will scavenge the bodies in the morning, should be some coin on them at the very least. The gear they had was old and worn or shit at best. Better to just take the things of high value."

“What was their deal anyway, were they tracking us?"

“Yes, I believe the wolf they had with them was onto our scent. From what I could tell they would have taken everything from us. Men like that don't just leave you alone if you scare them off. I know from experience, they had to die."

I unpack our supplies for dinner, dried meats, preserved fruits, and nuts. It wasn't the most filling, but we would have the energy to continue in the morning. “I understand, some people can't be reasoned with. If you wound their pride by sparing their lives they just come back for more. I wish the world wasn't this way."

He pulls me next to him as we snuggle by the fire slowly munching on dinner. “We can't change the world, only live in it."

I wasn't so sure about that, what do you think friend? “Can we talk about Frostfang, what should we expect once we get there?"

He huffs and takes a moment to think “It's been years since I've been back here, but the further away we get from the main cities the darker furred wolves you find. We should be welcome there, and hopefully find some work if those bodies don't have much of value. If I recall there is a nice little inn with beds that can fit me. For once we can sleep together in comfort."

I give him a few deep scratches on his neck “I'm always comfortable sleeping with you as my blanket."

“I know, but the ground can be awfully hard on my back. It will be comfortable for me."

If my man is happy then I am happy, we retire to bed after a long and stressful day. I keep first watch and let him sleep a little longer, he could use the rest. When morning comes Killian leaves to go check the bodies for valuables as I pack up our camp. There wasn't a whole lot to do so I end up just standing there with my thoughts.

“Friend, I get that you're shy and planning something. You've been nothing but helpful and I want to return the favor. Can you tell me at the very least, will me and Killian be okay in the end?"

For the second time I actually get a response from him, a whisper at best. “Both of you will live."

I breathe out a sigh of relief. We would both live, his choice of words was specific. I had made up my mind a long time ago. My friend probably wanted something big. I was racking up quite a debt to him but I would pay it. “When the time comes, just tell me what to do don't force me. I want to pay my debts with my own two hands." I get no response to this.

I can see Killian's dark figure moving quickly through the trees as he returns. He holds up a small leather pouch that jingles slightly. “They did not have much, seemed desperate coming after us. Fools had no idea who they were messing with."

I put on my pack as we add the coins to ours. “I'll be glad to finally get out of the wilderness, all the sights you've shown me so far have been amazing. But a bed with you in it, naked, sounds just as enticing." I reach around and give his nice firm ass a squeeze, it's been a while since I've fucked him.

I hear a deep rumble from his chest, he looks forward to it too. We waste no time and continue on our journey. The scenery continues to change as we travel further up in elevation, some small patches of snow remain in the shade as the trees become shorter and their needles greener. I wear my warm clothes more frequently, but the sunlight is hot against my skin. It felt like spring was coming to an end and summer was upon us.

At long last we come upon a road, it was paved with small stones as we headed north-west.

“Any idea how close we are?"

“We should arrive in Frostfang in about an hour of walking. It's been a long journey."

“How did you live like this for all those years? It must have been real difficult sometimes."

“It was not easy, some winters I had to do things I'm not proud of. Meeting you though, makes everything worth it."

“Speaking of, people here don't mind two men in a relationship right?"

“Yes that's correct, many men prefer to take wives and have more sex on the side. We can be insatiable sometimes so most of the women don't mind. There is nothing wrong with having a male mate either."

I get the irresistible urge “Do you think, I could hold your paw while we walk?"

He reaches down and takes my hand, holding it firmly. “Maybe we can finally have that first dance as well."

My heart swells with this feeling that I'm experiencing. It was like a bundle of relief, joy, love, and happiness all rolled into one. Suddenly we didn't have to hide our love like it was life or death anymore, a prize like that is worth this trip. Soon enough the town comes into view, there are several plumes of smoke filling the sky as I see various dark furred wolves move about their day. Some were tending to a garden, the growing season must be quick here. Others were chopping wood, butchering animals, doing laundry. It was similar to life in the human cities, only nobody really paid us much mind as we walked hand in paw. If anything they were just staring at me, a human visiting the north.

Killian drags me over to an old looking wooden building it had seen many winters. There was a sign hanging from the front depicting a bed and a flagon of beer. The floorboards creaked under our weight as we stepped inside. An old brown female wolf spotted with gray hairs was behind the counter polishing some mugs while a couple of patrons sat around either drinking or eating. She gave Killian a funny look noticing his weapon. He lets my hand go to secure us lodging “How much for a room here? We've been on the road a while could use a good rest."

The old female wolf replies “Rooms are 5 silver a night, we serve hot meals during the day and we just got a new barrel of frost plum ale so there's plenty to drink." She looks between us curiously for a moment. “You two wouldn't happen to be together, would you?"

I just look like a nervous idiot, so Killian speaks up. “Yes, he is mine." His arm wraps around me possessively.

“In that case if you two share a room there better not be any funny business. I run a clean tavern here and I'm the one that has to do the laundry. You wouldn't want to sleep in someone else's mess, and besides we would all hear the noise your human would make." She gestures to me.

I'm somewhat relieved, being with a man wasn't a terrible or uncommon thing here. It wasn't flattering that everyone thought I was Killian's bitch though, I could have his ass if I wanted. I swear Killian couldn't contain his smile as he paid the woman, he looked flattered. “Don't worry, we just would like a warm place to sleep and meals for our bellies. How about it love, care for your first taste of my homeland?"

“How could I possibly say no to that, bring out the ale!"

The food that we were served appeared to be some sort of stew. Big chunks of barely cooked meat floating in a dark brown broth with assorted vegetables. I had no idea what half of them were but they tasted good. The barely cooked meat was delicious, soon it would taste even better. So far I had only had wines from Drakefall, ale was a new experience for me. The flavor wasn't as strong but I could taste the sweet fruit and alcohol which got me fairly tipsy.

I was in a good mood feeling rather talkative. “Sho, why did you leave exactly this seems great!"

Clearly a topic he did not want to discuss right now he hushed me. “Later love, looks like you enjoyed your first taste of the north. There's plenty more to come don't you worry." We continue to eat and drink until we can no more, the sun has since moved across the sky starting to set.

Killian collects me and our belongings as we head upstairs to our room. We lock the door laying down our weapons and hefty bags as we waste no time getting into a heated make out session. His paws are all over me stripping me naked as my hands to the same to him. I get a look at the bed, it was massive by my standards. Killian picks me up easily and tosses me onto it, the sheets were quite fluffy and soft but the mattress was firm and old. I crawl back towards the headboard as I lay my head down on one of the pillows. Watching as my wolf slowly creeps up grabbing my legs and pulling me under him. I can see his furry sheath become plump as his cock pushes its way out that red tip greeting me. I can't wait anymore as I start to rub his junk with both hands. Just as soon as I start those powerful paws are pinning my hands above my head. He brings his body down next to mine pulling me close as we cuddle.

“Not so much fun when you're the one getting teased is it pup?" I feel his tip slide between my cheeks as he just holds me against him. I can't help but grind my ass against it. A paw on my hip holds me still. “No no, remember what we promised, no funny business. Time for sleep pup, let's rest easy tonight."

Letting out a groan I'm tipsy and horny, but I deserved this punishment. Every fiber of my being wanted to have sex with my man right now. As I lay there against him with a half erect cock I could hear the subtle change in his breathing, he was fast asleep. I try to do the same, laying there warm and safe against my man lets me finally relax as I join him in slumber.

I have no idea what time it is when Killian's movements jolt me awake but it felt like we both had caught up on sleep from the journey in one night. With long drawn out yawns we get dressed to face the day, I had a light headache as I took some sips from my waterskin. “So I'm really confused here, this place seems amazing. Everyone is so welcoming and accepting of us being together why would you leave?"

I can hear is annoyed grumble next to me “Because, you haven't met them yet. The wolves with white fur, the ones that aren't cursed like everyone in this place. This small town Frostfang, life is not easy here. The growing season is short, meat is scarce, people need to claw at the land for their lives every year just to make it through the winter. There is no time to be worrying about who someone else is fucking, or they will starve."

When he puts it that way I'm not sure I want to meet them. “Noted, but where are you thinking of taking me next? It feels like summer so shouldn't we be fine for a while."

We walk out of the tavern, thanking the hostess as we start walking. “Next I wanted to show you the great plains of Kassa and beyond that the ocean. The beaches here are rocky but the fish, is to die for." The way to a man's heart was truly through his stomach, we both loved to eat.

We don't get far as a female black furred wolf chases after us, frantically asking us to wait. We turn and hear the woman out. “Please, you two look like capable warriors. I beg of you, my daughter was taken several nights ago while she was fishing. It was a group of humans and a wolf, I could smell them. They tried to ransom her back but we have no money to pay what they were demanding. I don't have much, just a few silver but everything is yours if you get my daughter back!" she starts sobbing, the woman was at her wits end with nowhere else to turn.

Killian looks gravely concerned, we did already kill that group of bandits but had no idea they had a hostage. “Rest easy miss, we met that group of bandits on our way here. They are all dead now. I will go back to find your daughter, we had no idea they had her."

Her eyes light up with hope as she grabs onto Killian's arm “Please sir, let me go with you I can help look. I don't know where they were keeping her but I know her scent." He removes her paw from his person as he calms her down.

“No, I run much faster alone. Your daughter has been on her own for a while now it is better for you to not slow me down. You can keep my future mate and our belongings safe in your home while I go search. I will get her scent at your home, come there is no time to waste."

The woman is overflowing with hope as she leads us back to her humble abode. It was a small log cabin in town, there were only three rooms. One general area for cooking, cleaning, lounging, and two bedrooms. Killian got the girls scent from her room and wasted to time to head out. There was no telling what state she was in after several days tied up somewhere. I was left there awkwardly alone with the black furred female and her brown furred mate. Our packs were placed against a wall as I rested my spear there as well. The silence was deafening, what was I supposed to say?

“Don't worry, he's very good at what he does I'm sure he will find your daughter."

The brown male just glares at me. “It's cruel to be making promises that you might not be able to keep human."

The woman gives him a light smack “They're the first people to actually do something around here. They killed those bandits already it's just a matter of finding our little girl."

I can see the father is skeptical, I just let them argue back and forth as I try to find something to occupy myself. I see small blocks of wood lined up presumably for the fire. I interrupt their bickering to ask “Do you mind if I chop some wood? I like to whittle to pass the time."

The man shrugs “Go for it."

I take their axe and split a piece of firewood into more manageable cubes fit for carving small trinkets. Sitting in a corner with my back up against the wall I whittle the time away. Doing my best to drown out their arguing. I would go outside if I could, but it was my job to guard our belongings and I trusted no one. The hours passed as day turned into dusk, my dexterous hands had carved some intricate pieces. I carved a generic wolf head, a bear, and the moon. The couple looked impressed with my carvings as we heard thunderous foot steps approaching from outside. Killian burst in with an emaciated black furred wolf girl in his arms and a burlap sack slung over his shoulder. The mother screamed in a mix of joy and shock, immediately taking the girl from his arms and bringing her next to the hearth where dinner was bubbling away. The father didn't look too pleased. This land wasn't all good either, but it was better for us.

Killian's breathing was hard and ragged, I couldn't imagine how fast and far he ran to cover the distance we had walked to get here. I look at the sack he was carrying, it seemed to be weighing him down. He sat it on the ground with a metallic thud before having a seat on the floor to catch his breath. I'm deadly curious so I open the sack and inside is an assortment of trinkets. Silver cups, gold jewelry, and other assorted valuables. He closes the bag and keeps it close “Girl, hah, saw where they, hah, kept their stash, hah. Clever girl."

The mother is occupied reviving her child as she makes her eat bowl after bowl of some kind of vegetable stew. It smells okay, not as good as our cooking though. I gather our belongings and take Killian outside for a moment to talk. “All they did was argue while you were gone, I don't think the father cares much for the girl."

He grumbles “Sounds about right, everyone wants a cub with white or gray fur. At least the mother genuinely cares."

I look at the sack of spoils he was carrying “So what do we do with all of that? Must be worth a good amount of coin. We just going to barter with it, or if we find a forge I can smelt most of it down to make it easier to trade."

He ponders our options “It will be very annoying carrying all of this around even if our packs have gotten lighter. We should barter and trade what we can to restock here, I was hoping to get to a wealthy city, but this will have to do."

I can't help but think about the family in the house. “What about the girl, should we leave them with something to help her recover? She was the one who told you where the stash was." My thoughts wander to the father, would he just take whatever we leave for himself?

Killian lets out a very long sigh, he loved money. “Rrrrr, fine. We leave something small with the mother. I don't trust the father after what you said. I wasn't planning on staying here another night but here we are."

We head back into the house to check up on the girl, she was weak but alive and recovering. She spots my carvings and I can see a twinkle in her eye. Toys must have been a rarity in these parts, I put all of them in her arms. It wasn't their intended purpose to be a children's toy but who was I to deny her. Both parents seem to appreciate the kind gesture. Killian distracts the father while I slip the mother a small silver pendant. I think she gets the message as we all part ways.

Heading back to the inn we rent another room for the night, word of Killian's deed traveled fast. Word of the black wolf wielding a mithril spear. The lady running the tavern gave us a small discount for saving the girl. I hope this good deed wouldn't bite us in the ass, but with how well things have been going I have a feeling it will. Sleep was just as peaceful as the previous night, and we started our day by trading the spoils for food and supplies. We had to overpay for mostly everything, the people here didn't exactly have spare coin. Stuffing the most valuable gold pieces into our packs we headed back out on the road, towards the plains of Kassa to the east.

“So what exactly is the plains of Kassa? I hope it's not just an open field."

“Oh no of course not, I wouldn't bring you to something so boring, you will see."

“How long might this leg of the trip take us?"

“No more than 3 days, I travel faster on my own. Have to slow down for those human legs of yours, but it is relaxing I didn't realize how much I missed home."

The landscape was sparsely populated with trees but a plethora of quickly growing grasses, flowers, and shrubs filled in the empty space. It was a beautiful sight in the warm weather, made it hard to imagine how harsh winters could be. We made camp along the roadside, Killian assured me the land was kept safe. On the last day of travel we spotted a group of soldiers, all with pure white fur. They wore white cloaks to conceal their equipment but each of them carried a sword. If it were winter and the land was covered in snow, the only way you'd ever spot them was their black nose.

“I can see why white fur is so desirable here, you'd never spot them in the snow."

“Yes, but lets avoid any of them we come across, I'd rather not be reminded of what they all think of me. Not to mention I'm still carrying stolen property, sort of hard to miss this beauty."

“Would it be better if I dealt with any white wolves we come across? I'd rather not see you suffer their ignorance or accusations."

Killian shakes his head “No, I can't run from the past forever, but with you by my side I am finally ready."

The next day we finally reached the plains of Kassa, and I could see why this was our next stop. Killian forgot to mention this was where fire mountain was, and the plains were made of jagged black glass stretching on for miles. “This is not what I was expecting. It's quite beautiful really."

“It is, I always wondered if the story was true but here we are. The mithril in the glass has been mined dry ages ago, you'll see the occasional treasure hunter, but they always come back empty handed." There were several streams flowing through the crevices in the landscape as the last of the snow melted from the mountain.

“Is Kassa the wolf who first discovered the mithril in the glass?"

He nods “You're sharp, yes it was a white wolf named Kassa. He took a hammer and chipped away at the glass to reveal the first chunk of mithril, and the rest is history. Now all that's left is this jagged landscape of broken glass, we need to be extremely careful crossing it, going around will add days to our trip to the ocean."

“I'll be sure to watch my step."

Crossing the plains of Kassa was truly an arduous ordeal, mining the glass had left numerous sharp jagged edges that would rend flesh from bone if you stepped on it. It took the entire day just to cross the few miles of terrain, we had stopped to admire the beauty of the mountain once we reached the middle. The jagged glass traveled all the way to the peak

“So you think the mountain king is really living up there at the peak?"

“As a pup I hoped it to be true very dearly, so that he might change everyone's mind about black fur being a curse. He would provide mithril to the people, make our lands rich and everyone would love black fur as well as white from then on. Both would have merit."

We finished our crossing by nightfall and set up camp beside the nearest tree line in the shadow of the mountain. “Should we leave the mountain king an offering so we don't anger him by sleeping here?"

Killian smiles at this prospect and starts to rummage around in his pack bringing out the little wolf totem I had carved for him what felt like ages ago now. “I would like to leave this as an offering, but since you made it I'd understand if you don't want me to."

I shake my head “No, I think it's perfect. That little totem is precious to both of us I'm sure the mountain king would accept such a potent offering."

Killian goes a short walk to the base of the mountain, we were camping quite close to it. I watch him set it down on a makeshift altar he made by stacking stones and say a prayer. When he returned he looked at peace. “Thank you, that meant a lot to me."

We sit around a small fire and cook up some of the fresh rations we bartered for. Opting to roast some weird yellow spherical vegetable on a stick as we pair it with preserved meat. “What is this thing even?"

“It's called a Sun Pea, they only grow here during spring. The flavor isn't anything special but they fill your stomach and are nutritious."

True to his word the Sun Pea has little to no flavor, opting to pair each bite with some meat to make it go down easier. We both strip naked and cuddle in Killian's bedroll. I'm still craving his touch as I grind my ass back into his sheath.

“No pup, not tonight. The mountain king is watching, nobody really sleeps or has sex here it's considered bad luck. But we left him a precious offering, so sleeping here should be okay."

With a heavy sigh I stop my advances and respect Killian's wishes. We just drift off to sleep under the stars again like we have so many times before.

I wake up, but I am not held in my lover's embrace. I am in a very familiar-looking bed in a very familiar-looking room. There's a fire in the hearth that gently crackles. I throw the covers off of myself, I am a wolf. This is exactly the dream I had before where I made that deal all those months ago. I look at my limbs and focus, breathing out deeply as I put my feet on the ground finding that walking now comes naturally. I get up and pace around the room, enjoying the sensation. I try to open my muzzle to speak, I struggle to form words but they come out slowly with some effort. My tongue conforms as my lips move “Friend …. You … there?"

A hand surprises me from behind, this time it was covered in white fur as it snakes around rub my chest lovingly. I turn to face him, he was just as big as me with piercing red eyes just like mine. That white fur covering his body was serene, I stroke his neck fur and it's the softest I have ever felt. “Is … it … time?"

My friend brings me in close and gives me a kiss, I push him away. He chuckles as he licks his lips. “Oh yes, it is nearly time. You said you wanted to repay your debt yourself with no help from me. I liked that, I really liked that. Usually I am made to … force my paw." He gestures to my own paws. “But look at you, walking and almost talking. That is all you by the way, I just helped out here and there to prepare you. All this effort you're putting in right now, it will stay with you when the time comes."

“What .. do I .. need .. to do?"

He smirks. “Straight to business as usual, you're no fun. You already know, we can't get what we want without a little sacrifice. In 10 days the moon will turn red, on that night you are to bring one beautiful and perfect white wolf like me to the altar in the middle of the plains of Kassa. Don't worry, you already know the way there. Bleed them, draw the runes, open their chest, consecrate yourself in blood, eat their heart. The way will open, and on that night we will both get what we want."

I look down at my hands, only one life must be sacrificed, one murder. “Will .. it hurt?" I was getting better at talking the more I practiced.

I can see his sinister smile as his voice changes to match that face. “Oh yes, your suffering will be legendary. The pain will be burned into your memory until the day you die. A necessary sacrifice just remember, it will end."

“What.. will you.. get?"

He hushes me and gives me some lovely neck scratches. “Don't worry about that, you know what you need to do. What I get isn't important, this is all about you remember. Your lover hasn't been very attentive lately has he." He starts to rub my sheath but I push his hand away.

“No… I want only … him"

I am reminded of his strength and who is in control here as I find myself being pushed down onto the bed. “I insist."

I close my eyes, urging myself to wake up, then calmly trying to relax, nothing seemed to work. I open my eyes to see him staring at me. “You promised … not to hurt."

His hand cups my face lovingly as he rubs it just the right way. “I did, but this isn't going to hurt, it's going to feel good. Very good in fact, I know what you like."

Before I know what's happening ropes have formed around my wrists and ankles pulling them together. I watch helplessly as my friend bends me over the mattress with my knees on the ground, my arms held out in front of me as he loops the rope under the bed and ties it to my ankles. I don't fight it, I know I'm powerless here. “Good boy, you know your place. I'm just trying to help, all I've ever done is try to help you. You're so very pent up right now we need you to focus on the task at hand. Wouldn't want this sacrifice to be for nothing now would we?"

I nod my head, I hated what he was doing. His soft touch made me sick to my stomach. I feel his hot breath on my ear “Don't worry, you like being raped don't you."

I shake my head frantically back and forth. “No.. no! That's … not true!"

He slips a collar around my neck, humiliating me as he lifts my tail out of the way and fastens a small strap to the base attaching it to the collar. My hole is completely exposed now as I lay there helplessly. His cool wet nose presses right under my tail as he inhales sharply, I hear him moan and shudder “Oh yes, it's true, you smell so horny right now. Such a big strong and powerful wolf all tied up just for me."

His paw comes down on my ass with a loud smack making me quiver in pleasure, it feels amazing. The blows keep coming as my cock slips out of its sheath, my legs shake from the strain. He reaches between my legs pulling my cock and balls back, leaving them to his mercy. “I know how you felt when Killian did this to you, it was the best sex you've ever had no?" His paw traces along my sore ass which radiated heat.

“You're … not him."

He sighs, and the next thing I know he is there, Killian's facsimile staring back at me. “Hey there pup, ready for round two?" My cock is still aching between my legs dripping pre, there was no escaping it. I just close my eyes and look away, I wasn't enjoying this … was I? He gets on the bed and his crotch is right in my face, he grabs my muzzle and plants my nose right into his balls “Sniff." I can't hold my breath forever as I'm forced to inhale his scent. I breathe out with a satisfied moan, I loved Killian's scent and it smelled better than ever. “That's it, enjoy yourself." He gets off the bed circling behind me again.

Hot breath graces my cock as a long rough tongue is dragged over it. It feels incredible, I wanted a wolf cock so badly. My knot slips out of my sheath and he grabs it squeezing it gently which makes me hump into his hand. “Oh, eager now aren't you." I grunt in frustration, I just wanted to cum and get out of here.

“Don't worry pup, I'm going to make sure you enjoy this." He loops a rope around my neck and starts to pull it tight, almost cutting off my air. I feel a wet sensation envelop my shaft as something sucks my dick. It's hard to breathe but my senses are being overstimulated. My body strains against my bindings as I see stars. The rope loosens and I'm allowed to catch my breath, my cock has never been harder after that. His tongue is pressing against my tailhole drawing lovingly long licks as I whine and moan in ecstasy. Two digits press firmly against my ass as they slip inside, arching to reach that sweet spot in my ass. Finding purchase as he rubs it in slow circles driving me wild. I'm moaning like a bitch as he fingers my tailhole “That's right pup, you want me to fuck you right there, in your special spot?"

“N-no! You're … not him!"

What I say doesn't matter, he takes his fingers out and I feel my hips being grabbed, pulled back against him. That huge cock slides across my tailhole as he lines up the tip. “Oh yeah, you're loving this right now deny it all you want puppy, you love being my bitch."

He presses his cock inside me, it slides in nicely as my tailhole stretches to accommodate that familiar girth. His tip pokes me right in my special spot as his shaft slides past rubbing it the entire initial penetration. I can't help but feel good as he fucks me. Slowly his hips draw back and slam forward his knot pressing against my hole with a wet slap, it was lubed. I lay there tied up, moaning and groaning as I'm pleasured better than I have ever been. My cock is leaking copious amounts of pre as my knot is throbbing fully engorged begging to be touched. The wet slaps of sex filling my ears as he drives his cock in faster and harder. “Ready for the knot pup? Here it comes open wide."

He starts pressing that fat knot into me, the lube making it slowly stretch my hole with one hard push until it slips inside making me let out a satisfied moan. It feels better than ever before, my tailhole seemingly made to derive pleasure from being bred and knotted like this. “Now comes the fun part." He tightens the rope around my neck again completely cutting off my air as he holds it between his teeth pulling back. I feel two paws on me, one stroking my shaft as the other grabs my knot squeezing it hard. I can barely grunt as the most powerful orgasm I've ever had hits me, my cum shooting out in thick spurts as it stains my legs pooling on the ground beneath me. The veins in my neck and head feel like they're about to burst from the stain of pumping my cum out of my cock. Once the initial burst of pleasure is done the rope slackens letting me gasp for air as my knot is squeezed, drawing out my orgasm for minutes. I keep spurting little globs of cum until everything calms down. I lay there on the soft sheets completely drained and satisfied. “See, that wasn't so bad was it? You have your work cut out for you, remember 10 days."

I close my eyes and start to fade away, coming back to my senses in the real world. I see that it is dawn. I feel wet, looking down I have left a big stain of my cum inside the bedroll. I shudder, I really needed that. I just wish that it was Killian that did it. He wakes up behind me feeling my movements. “Good morning pup, sleep well?"

“Not really, I had a bad dream."

He sniffs the air “Bad dream? Why does it smell like …" he reaches around and feels the mess I made during the night. “Mmm, did I tease you too much pup? Dream about me doing all those bad things to you in your sleep?"

“Yeah, you did. I dreamed about the best sex you've ever given me. This is the first time that I've cum in my sleep."

“You'll have to tell me about it so I can make it a reality."

“Yeah, I'll tell you all about it love."
